"Actually, the other party came to the door. Su Cheng simply explained: "In the first two years, the international shipbuilding market was sluggish, and the price of orders fell all the way. Since the beginning of this year, the ship market has recovered, but the price of raw materials has risen, and some shipping companies have made a ship and lost a ship, and they found that we were unwilling to transfer the giant general section shipbuilding law and the flat land shipbuilding law, so they simply transferred the shipyard and the order to us......"

"If they make a loss, Dahua won't be there?" said the young group members with great curiosity.

The shipman next to Sioux City said, "Our cost is at least thirty percent lower than theirs." So, even if it is a previous order, it is still profitable. Of course, it is better to have new orders. ”

He didn't tell the whole story. For a shipyard, it is not terrible to have low-priced orders, but it is terrible to only have low-priced orders.

No matter how low the price of the order is signed, it itself is definitely more expensive than the raw materials. The part that shipping companies may lose is only the input of labor costs and equipment depreciation. Even if the low-price order is not profitable, it can at least make up for the labor cost and equipment depreciation, which is equivalent to the guaranteed salary of the shipyard. As long as there are some high-priced orders as bonuses, shipping companies will not only not lose money, but also live very nourishingly.

However, Dahua Industrial intervened in the market, making high-priced orders almost non-existent.

The big Chinese people who flocked out swept away the orders in the market, and if they wanted, Sioux City would be able to make a profit of twenty or thirty percent at the same time. For shipping companies that do not lack low-price orders, the emergence of Dahua Industry is even more terrible than the economic crisis.

Even if many shipyards can continue to operate, the shareholders of the factories may not be happy. The three companies that were acquired by Sioux City were the three more active, and their bosses would rather cash out and withdraw than get into it endlessly.

"So, there is already a foreign shipping company under the name of Dahua Industrial, and how is Dahua going to operate these overseas companies?" It seems to be much more interesting than the ship itself. In '99, Chinese companies have not yet expanded overseas, but the signs have already appeared, and as policy researchers, it is natural to take a step ahead to understand and speak.

Sun Daofu also turned his head curiously. In the past few years, he has actually had the opportunity to acquire foreign companies, but he has not been able to do so for various reasons, and the difficulty of management is one of them.

Su Cheng nodded slightly. "There are indeed three shipping companies, but because they are all small and medium-sized shipping companies, we are not ready to carry out actual operations, but are ready for further processing." ”

"Further processing?" someone asked, confused.

Everyone came over, as if they wanted to hear something about Su Cheng's business advice. Especially the people in the shipping industry, although they do not want to admit it, the development of Dahua shipbuilding industry and even the development of Dahua industry are obvious to all.

Su Cheng bowed his head and paused. In anticipation, he said: "We are ready to transfer 2 Indonesian shipyards and 1 Malaysian shipyard. Merging into one shipyard, whether it is possible to establish two terminal factories. But whether it succeeds or not, the main strategy is still layoffs. ”

"Layoffs?" said more than one person with a stunned expression.

Su Cheng spread his hands and said, "The labor expenditure of the shipyard is comparable to that of Dahua, and the productivity is only one-third of that of Dahua. Even if the main section factory is built, it is difficult to reach two-thirds of the productivity of Dahua employees, so. Layoffs were inevitable, and we kept a shipyard to utilise local mechanics. Therefore, the final scale of the two general section factories is about 6 people. ”

"That's going to ...... How many people have been laid off?" asked Zhang, director of the Department of Employment and Income Distribution, half curious, half strange. He's still not used to the word layoffs.

In fact, even the word laid-off has not been popular in the past nine years, and although the policy level is discussing it, it is still very taboo about things like laid-off.

Before the country's finances are about to go bankrupt, we don't want the country's credit to go bankrupt. On the other hand, as the most advanced class in China, it takes not only courage but also skill and luck to fire the workers' big brother.

Until the last moment, no one could tell the question of layoffs.

As for the dismissals and layoffs, officials are even more secretive. With the rise of private companies in the 9s, layoffs also occurred from time to time. Unlike foreign private companies with social security and trade unions, the domestic security system has not been extended at all, and officials can't say when it will be extended, so they are ostriches and stuff their heads into the ground.

In high-level occasions, it is indeed rare to say "layoffs", and it is even more rare for a central enterprise like CSSC. Even in the years when the wave of layoffs was at its most intense, they were not really affected, but there were some effects on benefits and bonuses. The business difficulties encountered in the past 9 years are still very early before layoffs or layoffs.

Facing everyone's gaze, Su Cheng said without any feeling: "The total number of layoffs is about 55." The technical unions were retained a little more, and most of the management and general workers were dismissed. ”

"Can't...... Don't you lay off employees?" said Director Zhang, knowing that he had asked a stupid question. This probably belongs to his professional habits, even if he is a department-level official of the National Development and Reform Commission, sometimes he will still have a sense of weakness in the face of state-owned enterprises at the vice-ministerial level or ministerial-level.

Su Cheng couldn't help rolling his eyes, and said calmly: "If you don't lay off employees, Dahua will raise these 55 people." ”

Rong Shangguo coughed and said, "You can always find another way out, if you lay off employees, what will happen to these workers?"

"If it were a domestic worker, I might have tried to maintain the factory and take some measures, but at the moment I am a foreign worker, I can only say that it is better to find a job again. ”

This sentence almost choked Rong Shangguo to death. He said angrily: "Foreign workers are also working class, summarily dismissed ......"

Sioux City didn't speak, it was him.

When Zhang Chao came back from studying abroad, he naturally said: "I can't do the work anymore, do you want to wait for the factory to close down and then push the workers to the market?"

Rong Shangguo really wanted to say that one should not go out of business, but the situation at the Jiangnan Shipyard was not good, and he couldn't say it.

Suddenly, Rong Shangguo was very nostalgic for the old days.

Once upon a time, the people of state-owned enterprises never considered going bankrupt. If the business is difficult, the state will pay for it...... The most common situation is that state-owned enterprises sell as much as they produce......

"The dismissal of 55 people is really unthinkable. Rong Shangguo sighed, a little helpless.

"Therefore, when we do business, we must do a good job in the enterprise. The domestic economy is improving, and even if a worker is laid off, he can find a job, otherwise, expectations can only be expectations. "Sioux City thought of something as well.

Rong Shangguo has nothing to say. The small factories under CSSC have already stopped work and are waiting for work, and the enterprises are not good and cannot make money, so how to pay wages and bonuses.

Ding Zhipeng does not want to continue this topic, he himself is more concerned about the post issue in his country. So, Ding Zhipeng took a sip of water, cleared his throat, and said: "In this way, Dahua Industrial has solved the problem of insufficient orders." On the issue of the alliance between Dahua Shipbuilding and CSSC, does CSSC have any other ideas?"

"In terms of production capacity, we have not yet contacted the main section factory, whether we can reduce the requirements a little. "The general manager of Pingjiang Shipyard was worried that his factory would not be selected, and wanted to lower the overall requirements.

Su Cheng glanced at the other side and said: "If Dahua gets 2% of the shares, the two sides will naturally become affiliated enterprises, and when the time comes, we will guide all steps, including the whole process of factory construction, production, quality inspection, etc." ”

The CSSC people said to each other, or Rong Shangguo: "We have cleared the tertiary production company, I think, can we enter the formal negotiation stage?

"Su Dong?" Ding Zhipeng came over.

Su Cheng said without hesitation: "Dahua Industrial requires a minimum of 2% of the shares, and we plan to exchange the number of factories in the main section, as well as instruments and equipment. Of course, technology and training are also taken into account. ”

"No cash?"

"There was no cash. Sioux City replied in the affirmative.

Rong Shangguo was deeply attracted to him. This actually lowers the conditions again.

However, can CSSC still afford to use energy?

Sun Daofu and others are also considering the same problem.

This meeting, Sun Daofu pulled his old face, bypassed several layers of relationships, and asked Ding Zhipeng to come forward to facilitate it. If he let Sioux City go this time, what kind of request would he make next time?

Several people came and went, trying to make eye contact.

Ding Zhipeng smiled and wanted to announce the adjournment.

Su Cheng rushed before he could speak, and said, "The proposal to acquire shares is only valid at this meeting, and after the meeting, the method of stock acquisition will no longer be guaranteed." ”

CSSC's energy is still extremely strong, and he doesn't want to get caught up in the disruptive political struggle.

Ding Zhipeng smiled, and simply sat down and waited for the play.

With a deal of hundreds of millions of dollars, such a hasty decision is a challenge for both parties. Of course, the requirements for state-owned enterprises are even higher.

Soon, Sun Daofu said: "We must confirm with the higher authorities. ”

"We negotiate a price, and if the higher authorities don't agree, that's the only way to go. ”

"That's all you can do, do you mean to stop the union?"

Su Cheng nodded and said, "If the higher-level authorities don't agree, Dahua can only choose the best enterprises to cooperate." ”

Sioux City's attitude was more resolute than before.

This is also due to strength.

Sun Daofu and the others had no choice but to get together and discuss in a low voice.

They have done things like throwing their hands and leaving before, but now they don't dare.

P: It's four o'clock, and it's going to be dawn......

It seems to be late again......
